Trouble Under the Surface
First of all: Kathryn Dennis looks amazing on this reunion. Chelsea Meissner also looked awesome.
Last year the whole group were united by one common enemy named Ashley Jacobs. As they lacked a villain this season it seems like they’re fighting with each other. We all know that Shep Rose and Madison LeCroy has been the ones to stirr up most of the drama this season, but I sense an attitude among the ladies towards Kathryn.
Andy Cohen has questions for Shep’s actions this year and the group is going in on him. He’s being called a snob, an elite and they contront him about his anger issues. He himself claims to be a very smart person but he doesn’t seem to be able to self-reflect on his behavior. I adore Shep, but he was a unpleasant dark cloud this season.
The focus switch to Naomie Olindo and her new boyfriend Metul Shah. A lot of the viewers thought that Metul seemed to be very controlling and that Naomie looked very insecure about herself. Shep mutters that Metul comes from a male-dominated society, but I rather believes Naomie’s explanation that he was uncomfortable filming.
I have to say that it’s scary how easy it is to get prescriptions for drugs in the States. (It’s a illegal drug in my country.) It was troublesome to hear that Craig Conover has been taking Adderall. Cameran Eubanks thinks that he is addicted to the drug and thinks that him mixing this with alcohol is the reason for his strange behavior sometimes.
I’m getting a sense that the other cast members isn’t feeling Kathryn at the reunion. It seems like a lot of their issues comes from her interview on Watch What Happens Live. I haven’t seen this interview nor did I have a clue what happend here.
The group seems to think that Kathryn indeed was on something during that interview. And she did deflect when she was confronted about it on the reunion. She got so unnecessary aggressive with Austen when he said he was disappointed in her. She doesn’t like this conversation at all.
If only I were she!
